Hey was asked a few times to release my replays so just thought I would. I am GM and there is going to be 248 replays.
The last 100 or so will be the most recent. You will see some experimentation and you will see very very very very very little infestor usage. In all the games I played I think in maybe 5 games of those 248 did I make some infestors.
I hope you guys enjoy the replays and for any zergs struggling in zvp, well I have a 77% win ratio in the match up and rarely lose it so these replays should also help you with that!
I have seen quiet a few zergs saying zvp is impossible but I am winning most of them so yeah .

You won't see to much swarmhost usage (I always lose with them it feels like).
You will see lots of vipers, lots of vipers and lots of vipers :D.
Also ultra/muta .

Thank you very much, blade.
|
Thanks, been looking for zerg replays.

I'm not sure how many people look forward to that but I will of course be releasing guides in hots and probably will release a guide the day or at least the same week hots is released :D

You like muta play, haven't watched them all. Do you only go muta in these games? Just curious.

Yes I do like muta play zvz and zvp. It was the most dominant until yesterday when blizzard stupidly (imo) overbuffed infestors heavily so now infestors are goign to be seen in my zvz's more.
But yeah there are quiet a few non muta builds in zvp/zvt, but I think most if not all zvz's were muta mainly.
|
Amazing! Thanks a lot! And btw, imo you're one of the HotS players who better understands and quickly adapts to new units and pacthes. I just hope you keep posting more in the future!

Blade,
thanks a lot.
Just a quick question. How do you feel Ultras right now? Are they very strong? Over power? Which composition you use them against?
Sorry, at work right now and busy in the season to watch the replays....

Ultras are very powerful. Not imba at least not in zvt. Zvp I don't think their imba either but everytime I get ultras I am so far ahead it doesn't matter lol. It does trash zealot/stalker so bad though now :D.
zvp ultra/ling/bane/viper with some hydras if he has air tech, zvt same, zvz I am going ultra/infestor if it gets that late in the game to where I can do that.
|
Awesome! There's a real lack of Zerg hots replays/streams.
I believe ZvP is actually Zerg favoured at the moment. ZvT however... I really wonder how you're supposed to play this match up. Can't wait to have a look at this.
|
Was watching your stream lately, you are good, like your playstyle. A lot of action, same as BW Zerg, not much turtling. As you said on your stream, HOTS fits your style, and is much better than WoL, I completely agree.
I've saw one game where you have used Swarm Hosts, and you won that game(a game vs. Protoss that went like 2 base 5 Colossi till the end of the game...), I liked the way you were using them, and I would really like to see more of them being used in the future, but I understand that is pretty hard to win the games with them without committing too much to them.
And watched one game where you went like Roach, Ling, Muta, Viper composition and destroy some Protoss with tons of reinforcing, it looked great and felt really 'Zergy'. :D
Keep it up! Will definitely download and watch your replays.
|
Just to let you know that there are 2 rars inside the main rar with duplicate replays.
|
Thanks so much! I will check the replays out because of my struggles in zvp. I'd never considered ultras lategame, so i'll see how they play out.
I'm also gm in hots and in wol, but seemed to struggle with roach/hydra/viper when the toss secures his 4th and beyond. Now, after reading this, i think i'll go hydra early game to defend against some 2base aggression and transition into spire tech with hopes of a better lategame options.
Cheers!

do you play also terran :D ?

When I watch your viper playstile I have faith again in SC2.
Remind me a lot of defiler style of broodwar.
Thanks for your pack.

This is why I didn't mind the infestor nerf as zerg. I loved with the blinding clouds and fast zerg armies. Way more exciting to watch. I am also hoping that for HOTS things like the mamacore and the viper allow some some crazier map designs. I was watching some proleague and saw Last vs Roro on arkanoid and thought it was cool with the air battles and tanks on highground etc. + Show Spoiler +http://www.twitch.tv/sc2proleague/c/1779680
